Not a great match for the subs. When it comes to amps I always believe that it is better to have separate amp for lows and one for the mids and highs. Those subs are rated @ 400 watts rms each the most that amp can give them is 200 watts a piece (400%2=200 watts each) If you tell us how much you want to spend on amps we can make some suggestions.

bberman1 - Thanks for the info. As far as price... I am not too concerned. I would like to keep it under a grand for both amps if possible. What are your suggestions.
